New effort to eliminate the BPT coming
Submitted by Leon Blum on Sun, 06/29/2008 - 4:43pm.You would think that, with the Nutter administration securing a substantial victory on tax policy, talk of the “job-killing business tax” would be on the decline.
But that awful tax is not yet dead—only the Gross Receipts portion of the tax is slated for elimination and the reduction in the Net Profits portion of the tax will come more slowly than desired by both Brett Mandel of Philadelphia Forward and the Philadelphia Inquirer. So the Inquirer and Mandel have been working together on a project to keep the terrible consequences of the BPT in the minds of the citizens of Philadelphia.
